You’ve mastered adaptation and performance. Now it’s time to reclaim your authentic self and your highest potential. I help clients on their healing journey to Self using somatic-based Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and Hypnotherapy. Together, we can transform anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and over-thinking into clarity, confidence, and intentional action. Maybe you've done talk therapy and understand your trauma well, but you're still stuck. Healing happens from your nervous system, not your intellect. I will give you the tools to operate from grounded authenticity rather than survival mode.
I specialize in working with high-achieving clients who have succeeded externally but feel stuck internally, especially those navigating complex identities or unconventional lives. You are ready for therapy that goes beyond insight — that produces tangible internal change, emotional mastery, and lasting transformation.
I utitilize deep, focused and evidence-based modalities for clients who value results. If you are ready to invest in yourself, break old patterns, and step fully into your power, contact me for 15 minute consulation.

In our first session I will take a thorough assessment of what brought you to therapy, and what some of your goals might be. I love to use IFS and inner child work to explore childhood wounds. And DBT to manage overwhelming emotions. To me, having goals and being open to exploring your patterns will aid in healing.
